Cuisine for the Concert Gala 2012 by Abigail Kirsch Catering Relationships.

Manhattan School of Music’s Concert Gala features performances by renowned artists and showcases our most talented young musicians.  The exclusive dinner and concert takes place at stunning venues and gives patrons a remarkable experience with the School’s extraordinary artistic community.

The Concert Gala 2011 at Tribeca Rooftop this past May honored three remarkable “Women Who Make Music Happen”: soprano Barbara Cook, new music patron Mary Sharp Cronson, and philanthropist Claude Mann. Attendees were entertained with music by violinist Sarah Chang, pianist Simone Dinnerstein, singer and actress Judith Blazer, and the School’s exceptional young artists.
